I considered ending this after Saturdays game, but there are 6 questions left and I made a commitment.

A. Team K scores a touchdown.
B. Team K scores a safety.
C. It's a touchback; team R will start a new series at its own 20 yardline.

RULE 8; Scoring.

SECTION 5. Safety
How Scored
ARTICLE 1. It is a safety when:
a. The ball becomes dead out of bounds behind a goal line, except from an
incomplete forward pass, or becomes dead in the possession of a player on,
above or behind his own goal line, or becomes dead by rule, and the defending team is responsible for the ball being there.
